In reply to: How can I remove the /wordpress from my URL?Well, it’s not necessary to move all files and folders from the wordpress dir to the root if you can point out where the files are. Basically, the copy of the index.php file in the root, outside the wp folder is just a pointer to the wp folder itself, and from there everything runs.
Depending on the browser, but typically you can delete the cache from the history, where you can select what to deleteForum: Fixing WordPress

In reply to: Plugins Unable to UpdateDid you try with 777 for debugging only? Seems to me that the updates cannot occur because of write permissions…

This is the correct way of doing it.

In reply to: 404 ErrorPossibile causes:
– bad .htaccess configuration
– bad wp-config.php file
– problems on the server
– problems with the domain nameForum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Site with without WWW domain looking differentThere is a problem in the .htaccess file.
If you want the non www to work as the one with www, you need this in your .htaccess file:RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)$ [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%1/$1 [R=301,L]Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Parse error, Vertical space, formattingSorry for being late, I was sleeping 😀
You need to download the file to your computer, open it with a code editor like Notepad++ , search for line 103, find the pesky “.” that is causing the syntax error and then save and upload the file on your server, overwriting the previous oneForum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Fonts not workingThe font is not working because the url is not good, it can’t find it on the server. Try using the Developer Console of your browser and edit the @font-face url until it catches it and then save that url to the custom css.

In reply to: Fonts not workingOk, I see the problem. you need to override the font-family currenty applied. To do that, you need to suffix the style with “!important”.
Example:.site-title {
font-family: myFirstFont, Times, serif !important;
font-size: 60px;
margin: 0;
}
Just tested it and it workedForum: Fixing WordPress

In reply to: Dashboard won't load after changing permalink in general settingsIn what folder did you install wordpress? You need a FTP connection, you need to go in the WordPress folder, copy the index.php and .htaccess files (copy, not move) and paste them in the root directory. There, open the index.php file and you will see the line:
require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . ‘/wp-blog-header.php’ );
Change it to:
require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . ‘/wordpress-directory/wp-blog-header.php’ );
where wordpress-directory is the folder on the server where wordpress is installed.
Now, in FTP, go to the wordpress directory, and open wp-config.php
Scroll down to find:
define(‘WP_SITEURL’, ‘http://www.yoursite.name’);
define(‘WP_HOME’, ‘ http://www.yoursite.name’);Now, guessing that you changed both wordpress url and site url, go ahead and edit:
define(‘WP_SITEURL’, ‘http://www.yoursite.name’);and change it to:
define(‘WP_SITEURL’, ‘http://www.yoursite.name/wordpress-directory’);
To go to the dashboard, you must go to http://www.yoursite.com/wordpress-directory/wp-admin
Good luck!
